Inline Critic refines image editing by critiquing intermediate predictions

Researchers have developed "Inline Critic," a novel method for image editing that allows a critique signal to influence the generation process mid-way through. This approach probes a frozen image-editing model and identifies error patterns in early layers, using this information to guide the model's hidden states for refinement. The technique has achieved state-of-the-art results on several benchmarks, including GEdit-Bench and KRIS-Bench, and demonstrates that the critic effectively shapes the model's attention and predictions.

    Inline Critic Steers Image Editing

    Instruction-based image editing exhibits heterogeneous difficulty not only across cases but also across regions of an image, motivating refinement approaches that allocate correction to where the model struggles. Existing refinement signals arrive late, after a fully generated im…
